11 new films compete for national day files

　　The sound of "the strongest summer file in history" just fell, and the footsteps of the National Day file followed. Faced with one of the best box office production schedules, each film producer will naturally not miss this excellent opportunity. Up to now, there have been 11 new films, such as Rock-Solid, Volunteers: Attack by Heroes, and Ex-4: Early Marriage, among which the biggest attraction is the "peak confrontation" between Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, two representatives of the fifth generation directors. At present, when the domestic box office movies are almost monopolized by the directors of the 1980s, the reunion of the two directors of the 1950s makes people return to the glorious years once created by the fifth generation directors.

　　Rock-solid

　　93 International Train Robbery: Operation Moscow

　　Zhang Yimou tried "the movie version of The Knockout".

　　This year’s Spring Festival movie "Man Jiang Hong" once again made Zhang Yimou one of the leading figures in the high box office of China movies. At present, the film ranks first in the mainland box office this year with a box office of 4.544 billion yuan, and also ranks sixth in the domestic box office history list. In recent years, Zhang Yimou seems to have found the knack of shooting high-grossing movies: one is to cooperate with Professor Peking University and screenwriter Yu Chen; The second is to find a group of young actors with both popularity and acting skills to cooperate with.

　　"As Hard as a Rock", which was released on September 28th, was filmed in 2019. This is his first collaboration with Yu Chen and actors such as Lei Jiayin and Yu Hewei. This film is Zhang Yimou’s first attempt to shoot a film about anti-corruption crimes, and tells the story of a soul-stirring investigation trip by Su Jianming (Lei Jiayin), a young policeman who works in the Criminal Appraisal Center of the Municipal Bureau.

　　In addition to portraying the key figures involved in complex cases such as Zheng Gang, deputy mayor (Zhang Guoli) and Li Zhitian, a wealthy businessman (Yu Hewei), the film also deeply discusses the themes of father-son relationship, marital relationship and power alienation, and it is also considered as "The Knockout in the film version". At the moment when the anti-corruption struggle is deepening, although the film was released after four years, its timeliness is still very strong. With the east wind of "Man Jiang Hong", "As Hard as a Rock" is undoubtedly one of the most powerful competitors in this National Day file.

　　Chen Kaige directed the epic of war.

　　In the The Battle at Lake Changjin, Chen Kaige directed the part of the volunteer army "before entering the DPRK", while "Volunteers: Attack by Soldiers", which was filed until September 28th, was a war epic directed by Chen Kaige alone. The film is a series of trilogy, and Volunteer Army: The Attack of Heroes is the first film released. The film shows the whole story of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea in a panoramic and multi-dimensional way. In addition to truly depicting the tragic battle of Songgufeng, it also vividly depicts the heroes on the diplomatic front in China.

　　In the cast, Xin Baiqing, Zhu Yilong and Zifeng Zhang are all powerful actors. In addition, Tang Guoqiang, Liu Jin, Zhang Songwen and Zhang Ziyi also play important roles in the film. Although The Battle at Lake Changjin and Watergate Bridge on Changjin Lake have made history at the box office, the box office of the films directed by Chen Kaige has never exceeded 1 billion yuan. It is unrealistic for this film to replicate The Battle at Lake Changjin’s brilliance at the box office, but as the "most difficult film" ever made by Chen Kaige, the quality of this film is still expected. Zhang Hanyu, Andy Lau, re-enacted the "Great Robbery of Chinese and Russian Trains"

　　It has been 19 years since Andy Lau and Zhang Hanyu cooperated again after world without thieves. The "93 International Train Robbery: Moscow Action" released on September 29th was directed by Qiu Litao, which was adapted from the "Sino-Russian Train Robbery" that shocked China and foreign countries, and it was also the first real case of cross-border pursuit in China. In the film, Huang Xuan plays the villain, Zhang Hanyu plays the policeman, and Andy Lau plays the mysterious man in Moscow. The plot contains thrilling contents such as car chasing, gun fighting and car blasting. This film is one of the largest cooperation films between mainland filmmakers and Hong Kong filmmakers in recent years. Coupled with Qiu Litao’s many years of directing skills in the action field, the thrilling degree of the film will make people feel adrenaline soaring.

　　A "This Killer is Not Too Cold" made comedian Wei Xiang a real first-line actor. On September 28th, It’s not as if I’m so excited, starring Wei Xiang and Wang Zhi, was adapted from the Spanish film Basketball Champion, which was released in China in 2019. Wei Xiang played Wei Guozheng, a basketball coach who was very persistent in winning, and led a group of people with mental retardation to form a basketball team named "Caring House", and finally realized the dream of winning the championship. Obviously, this is a comedy film, and it is also a film in which Wei Xiang plays a leading role, which is a big test for him. The film simultaneously introduced a barrier-free version specially made for visually impaired people.

　　The professional version of Cat’s Eye shows that the most wanted audience in this new National Day film is "Ex 4: Early Marriage". "Ex-3: Goodbye to Ex-3" once earned a high box office of 1.94 billion yuan in the New Year’s Day file in 2018, which also made this series one of the IP with the most box office potential. "Ex-4: Marrying Young" is still starring Han Geng, Ryan, Kelly and other original people, and tells the story of Meng Yun (Han Geng) and Yu Fei (Ryan) who are of marriageable age, who are confused about their emotional fate and a test of coping with the "cooling-off period of marriage".

　　In addition, this National Day file also includes six cartoons, I am the Return of the Hero of Nezha 2, The Legend of the Little Mermaid’s Sea Monster, Beacon Bear: mission to mars, Kung Fu King’s Meng Tiger Climbing the Mountain, Wang Wang Team’s Great Work Movie 2: Super Adventure and Crazy Rescue.

　　In 2019, a total of 13 films were released, and the total box office in 7 days exceeded 5 billion. This year, the number of National Day holiday days has increased to 8 days. Although the number of new films released has been reduced to 11, the strength of five blockbusters, such as "As Hard as a Rock", is very strong. With the heat set by the summer file, the box office of National Day file is expected to exceed imagination. Our reporter Wang Jinyue
